Before bis sermon last, Dr. Haw

'•I have been to see King Solomon,

saw nothing .in the performance that
seemed to be particularly suggestive of
evil, while I saw mueh that was good
1 wish to say this, however, that as an
historic drama it is a failure. It isa
great show, one that cannot fail to
please the eye, but looked at with the
eye of a man accustomed to criticise
things of that sort, I do not hesitate to
say that as an historic drama it is a fail
ure, and by that I mean it does not ac
complish the purpose for which it was
intended. If old KiogSolomon were to
rise from the dead be would not know
it Perhaps* if it were notail panto
mime and the people could have the
benefit of an explanation of all the cha
racters: and evolutions they might
in some way connect it with the reign
°f Kikig' Solomon, but I am sure that if
any one, however well acquainted with
the history of Solomon’s reign, should
by phapee see the play without know
Uig.wbat.it was intended for, he would
never recognize it as a representation
of things under the reign of Solomon,
an^ yeti say that it is a good show.
There are many things that are very
pleasing to the eye, and therefore it is
worth'seeing. The best thing, and the
only thing which approximated dra
matic art, was the scene of .Solomon’s
receiving the que» n of Sheba. There
was something in that that did not look
like real art. The music, however, was
superb, and to those w ho will not look
upon the performance with the eye of
an historical critic, it will not be a dis
appointment.”

UN RICH ED BY A PANTHEfi
as
Atlanta, Ga , Oct. 26 —[Special.]—
In the bustle and bustle incident upon
the Exposition,the coming of Governor
Hill, the Democratic Leagufe banquet
and all that, the comingof two impor
tant conventions has been practically
brgotten. Those are the road congres
ses which meet here Wednesday and
Thursday. It is due to the indefatiga
ble efforts of Secretary W. G. Whidby
that the road congresses will be more
than merely formal gatherings, for they
promise to be of real value. Colonel
Whidby has been hard at work since the
last meeting and the result is that both
gatherings will be thoroughly repre
sented.
The Georgia road congress will meet
in the hall of the House of Representa
tive at 10 o’clock on Wednesday morn-
iUg. ‘ ' ' fv -
The officers of this organization are:
President W. J. Northern; Vice Presi
dent first district, H. P. Smart of Chat
ham; second, H. R. Mallette of Thom
as; third J. C. Ellington of Macon;
foutb-w. J. Weeks of Talbort; fifth
C. T. Ziohry of Henry;
sixth, R. A. Nisbet of Bibb; seventh,
O Waddell of Palk; eighth, T-J
Eidson of Oglethorpe; ninth, J. W.
Robertson, of Habersham; tenth, W. H.
Warren, of Richmond.
Secretary W. G.’ Whidby, of Dekalb,
only seventeen counties have as yet
sent the hist s of their delegates to the
secretary but many other have been
seated and the indications are that the
congress will be largely attended. The
necessity of improvement in the roads
of Georgia is r* cognized by everybody
and if this congress will bring about
these improvements its work will be
blessed by the people.
THE INTEBSTATE CONGRESS.
Georgia is not alone in tbe desire or
the need for good roads. Every South-
era State is iu tbe same conditiou.
On the 29tb that is Thursday, tbe
Southern Interstate congress will meet
sn ‘ the ball of the House
vAith delegates from Arkansas, Florida,
Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Virginia. Georgia and
probably from Tennessee, Maryland,
West Virginia, Texas and Louisaina.
The programme for this congress—
rather for the opening day—is called to
order by Governor Northen, who will
welcome the congress to Georgia. Other
addresses of welcome from Mayor Hemp-
bill for Georgia, Mr. Clark Howell for
the press Georgia, Mr. Hoke Smith
for the ^ tlanu Horticultural Society.
The response in in behalf of the cong
ress will be made by Rev. M. B. Wbar-
ten, of Virginia.
The Ryan case is being argued in the
Supreme court today. This case is
the appeal from Judge Gober’s
decision in tbe contempt
proceedings. The court’B rulings in
a former proceeding that the evidence
was not properly cited to the Supreme
court applies to this case, and the re
sult of this mill be that Mr. Ryan’s at
torneys cannot attack tbe amount of
the Judge’s finding but must stick to
tbe law iu the case. That means that
if the finding of the court below was
not wrong from a legal standpoint, Hr
Ryan must pay the $120,000 fixed by
Judge Gober or go back cojail. Of
course he’ll pay the money.
The troubles between the County tax
collector and the Exposition company
have been amicably adjusted, at least it
is given out that they have been. The
Exposition company has probably car
ried its point and its one tax covers the
entire Bhow.

Atlanta, Oct. 26.—A special received
here from Tennille says that Wash

a regular Rube Burrows gang. Seven
•bridges were burned between Snnhill
and Tennille on the Georgia Central
•railroad during the night. All trains
are delayed and the telegraph wires are
cut in many places.
The incendiaries are unknown, bnt a

formation to the public. Whether
they have any clue to the perpetrators
of the deeds is not known.

In a lar:;e mining town in the far west
there lives George Randolf, a mining
king, who by nature is as stern and ar
bitrary as men are apt to be when they
acquire sndden riches. In addition to
his gold he possessed a rare treasure in
the person of his daughter Bessie, as
sweet a seveuteen-year-old maiden as
ever lived. ;= •.
Pretty Bessie did not lack for lovers,
and quite as naturally the favored one
was the very one that her father object
ed to.
Clyde Brown was frank spoken, with
an honest, manly face, a true, loving
heart, and little else.
“Why, Elizabeth”—her father always
called her that when displeased—“how
can you forget, that we are descended
from the Randolfs of Virginia? Just a
little longer, danghter—a year or two at
the most—and we will go east and live
as other people do. Then, my jewel may
find a worthy setting.”
“I want no one bnt Clyde, papa,” pro
tested Bessie tearfully.
But tears made no impression upon
the hard heart of George Randolf,
However, he condescended to give a
conditional consent to their union—such
an absurd condition that people laughed
and shook their heads and Bessie’s merry
face grew grave.
“When you can show the possession
of $100,000 you can have her,” he said
grimly, in answer to Clyde Browne’s
manly petition. “Until then TO hear
no more about it.
“You can never do it,” sobbed Bessie
when they stood alone in the moonlight
by the road a few moments later, while
her father watched angrily from the
window. “Fortunes are wonderfully
made in these mines sometimes, hut
none will fall to us.”
Don’t be discouraged, my precious
Queen Bess.” Clyde returned, with ail a
lover’s unreasoning fondness. “Only
trust in me through all and wait for me,
no matter what may happen. Will yon
promise me that?”
Indeed 1 will, dearest! You knew
that I would before you asked,” she
murmured. “But do not try me too
mnch, for father is as hard as a rock.”
I must go away for awhile, my dar
ling. Somewhere in yonder endless
chain of mountains a fortune is waiting
for me. I feel it—I know it as well as if
it were already in 'my grasp,” he an
swered, in solemn earnestness.
“God grant that it may be so,” she
added.
And then she walked slowly to the
house, to her father’s great relief.
The next morning Clyde left the town
fully equipped for a prospecting tour,
and quite alone excepting the three large
dogs which followed sedately at his
heels.
For some time the prize which he
sought eluded him, bnt it came to him
at last in a strange manner.
One day, after following the course of
a noisy, Bhallow stream into a narrow
valley hemmed in by lofty mountains,
he camped ut the toot of a gigantic tree
near the water.
The dogs whined uneasily and sniffed
at a hole among the roots of the tree,
but he called them away and went on
building a fire to cook supper from the
loose wood and branches around.
“Now that the fire is ready,” he
mused aloud, “I wonder if Ffi find any
game hereabout”
As if in answer, a half grown deer
came down to the stream on the opposite
bank not many rods away.
It stopped, with one foot upraised, and
looked at the dogs with Startled eyes
bnt the next instant the report of Clyde’s
rifle rang out, the deer leaped into the
air, sprang forward and fell into the
stream, from which it was soon dragged
by the dogs.
Bnt the echoes made by the report had
not died out among the hills before an
other sound aroused them again.
It was the scream of an angry panther
from the mountain behind him, and it
was instantly answered by another on
the right, and yet another far down the
valley on the left
Clyde heaped the dry limbs npon the
fire, and the dogs, usually as brave as
lions, whined piteously as they skulked
close to his feet.
He waited in breathless auxiety for
several minutes, but could hear nothing
except the crackling of the fire, which
now threw a wide circle of light, aud the
night wind among the trees.
Soon, following a magnetism which he
could not account for, he fixed his gaze
upon a tall tree near the base of the
mountain and encountered the glare of
two fierce, yellow eyes.
A panther was crouching there upon
long limb, every nerve of his body in
motion as he prepared for the fatal
spring.
To aim and fire at him was the im
pulse of h second, and the tawny brute
sprang outward with a snarl of rage and
pain, and fell squarely into the fire.
There was an unearthly shriek, a smell
of burning hair, a shower of coals and
lighted wood, then the brute stood
wounded and blinded near the tree.
“At him, boys; at him!” cried Clyde,
Aud the dogs closed on him, but,
wounded as he was, he was more than
match for them.
He killed one and sent the others howl
ing to a safe distance before their master
could surely aim the second bullet, which
qnioted him.
He was not an instant too soon, how
ever, for there came another terrific
scream, this time from the tree directly
over his head.
“I'm ready for yon now!” he cried
coolly sighting another panther directly
between the scintillating eyes.
He fired and sprang aside, while the
animal fell, struck -the ground with
heavy thud, clawed the earth and air
convulsively for a few secouds and then
lay quite still.
“This is getting interesting,” muttered
Clyde grimly-eying the two huge, tawny
bodies, the dead dog and. the sknlking
living ones, while he threw fresh wood
upon the scattered fire and peered m
every direction.
“Meow! Meowl Sct-t-t!”
He tamed sharply to see the heads of
two panther cubs thrust out of the hole
near the tree,' their ears laid close to
their round heads and their eyes sweep
ing the scene in fierce inquiry.
rircle of the light, sniffing the air un-
asilv and evidently afraid of a trap.
The smell of the scorched hair and the
blinding glare of the fire puzzled them.
But Clyde did not wait for them to
become satisfied of the safety of an at-
. He fired two shots iu quick suc
cession, killing one animal aud badly
wounding the other, which the dogs at-
acked at once.
When the sharp, short fight was over,
one dog limped back to receive the praise
of his master, while the other lay dead
beside its dead foe.
You and 1 are alone now, Brave, my
boy,” said his master, patting the dog’s
head. “Well, when daylight comes
we’ll see after that little varmint in the
Soto** ->«: ’vti
The night passed without further mo
lestation, but Clyde kept the fire burn-
_ brightly while he busied himself in
skiuning three of the panthers—the one
which had sprung into the fire being
worthless.
Two were monstrous brutes, male and
female, evidently the parents of the
smaller pair as well as the kittens.
After a generous breakfast of roasted
tenison he enlarged the hole with his
pick and shovel, and. after examining
his revolvers, crept in cautiously with a
lighted torch, while the dog remained
outside protesting against such fool
hardy conduct by dismal yelps and
whines, i- —V'
The cavity under the spreading roots
was deserted, but a larger opening led
into the rocky mountain 6ide, and
through this the astonished young man
crept, to find himself in a natural
cavern, f “ .
He soon discovered and killed the kit
ten, bnt could find no signs of any more.
The floor of the cave was covered with
bones, and a neatly made nest of sticks
and learns was in oue corner.
But Clyde did not notice these; he
was examining the rocky sides, which
were of a peculiar veined grayish stone.
There was a smile of satisfaction on
his face when he had finished this exam
ination, aud when he crept forth into
daylight again he muttered, tweaking
Brave’s ears until the dog yelped in pain
and wonder:
“Queen Bess is mine, Brave! There’s
gold enongluthere to satisfy even George
Randolf. I should say, and I claim it as
the panther’s bequest.”
George Randolf could say no more, al
though he insisted on visiting the pan
ther’s den to see for himself.
Borne folks ure lucky,” he admitted,
reluctantly. “If that mine is worth
$100,000 yon can iiave her, for a Randolf
never gow back on his word.”
That was only a year ago, and the
mine has, already netted i’.s owner over
$500,000.
Bnt he regards as a dearer prize the
loving wife who mles his heart and
home—bis Queen Bess.—Saturday Night.
